You're starting a new endeavor...
...and you can’t wait to get moving on your amazing idea.
You’ve got the perfect idea or service that you know can help a lot of people and solve a problem, but you don’t have the time to dedicate to the planning, execution, and monitoring of it.
The project that you want to launch has now transformed into a villain of fear, negativity, and thoughts of self-doubt whenever you think about it.
Maybe it’s your 9-5 job or the day-to-day obligations your business requires of you that just don’t afford you the time to move this thing forward.
Or maybe this is your first time ever heading up a project, one that involves several steps and has left you feeling overwhelmed, a little scared, and finding the project stuck.
Don’t fret. Trust me, we’ve all been there before.
I help you build the mindset, plan of action, and team needed to do the footwork that pushes your project past the barriers holding it back.
HELP IS ON THE WAY!
You know what you want to do, but you just need a little help.
Some extra external support that pushes you over those hurdles that are halting progress internally. You just need to get the gears moving on this project, right?
You’ve found the right place, my dear!
This is where I swoop in to gift you with a red cape, a glittery “S” to put on your chest, a plan of action, and a solid team for you to move that project toward completion (think “Justice League”, but with lots of pastel).
Grab the broom of anger and drive off the beast of fear. - Zora Neale Hurston
WE’VE ALL BEEN THERE.
(MYSELF INCLUDED!)
I’ve seen the look of accomplishment on a team’s face at the end of a project.
I’ve felt that same sense of satisfaction and let out a sigh of relief upon seeing the fruits of our hard work.
But that’s at the end of the project.
I am all too familiar with how easy it is to feel overwhelmed and doubtful at the start of a project, especially when you look at the laundry list of things that need to get done and realize you’re doing it alone!
The feeling used to leave me – and my projects – frozen.
Sometimes we find our goals STUCK in limbo for months at a time.
STRESS NO MORE…
It doesn’t have to be that way for you, and I’m the woman who is going to make sure of it.
You’re going to get more than a project manager when we team up – you receive an expert consultant, partner, and cheerleader who keeps your spirits up, the team organized, and your focus on the positives when things really get hectic (as all projects do).
Everything is a project and, like anything we propose, it needs to be planned and mapped out properly from start to finish. From budget to the final turnover, you need someone knowledgeable and organized with leadership capabilities to bring your project across the finish line.
If you’re interested in knowing more, feel free to schedule a free 15-minute consultation and I’ll be happy to help.
Focus on what matters...
Are All Projects Considered Equal?
As a certified project manager, it is important to understand that every project is NOT the same.
Whether you’re publishing your book for the first time, trying to launch a campaign, or simply trying to design a website, each project DOES contain the same life cycles, which are basically just the different phases of the project.
Even if you don’t work with me, you should be familiar with each of the phases of the project. Why?
Because you want to make sure that the project manager you’re hiring is a competent one, and any reputable project manager knows and handles project management with these four stages in mind:
- Phase One: Initiating the Project
This is the beginning, and the most important phase, as it sets the tone and foundation for the entire project. We don’t rush through this stage – instead, your project manager takes the time to understand what exactly it is you are asking for and define the project goals. In this phase, it is also determined what skillsets are needed, the timeline of the project, and the budget required, including any training needed. - Phase Two: Making A Plan
In this stage, after looking over the information, you have now green-lit the project to move forward. This is where your project manager creates a project plan from start to finish. This makes sure that all the involved stakeholders and team members know their tasks and are prepared to complete them. The important deadlines and tasks that are vital for the project to be successful are highlighted. In this phase, a schedule is also created to account for all materials, resources, and tasks needed to complete your project. - Phase Three: Project Execution and Task Completion
Here, all the plans are put into motion and everyone begins the execution of their tasks. At this point, the project manager is responsible for monitoring the team to ensure they complete the tasks – including communicating scheduling and quality expectations – and to report all updates and changes to you on a regular basis. The project manager is not responsible for completing the actual tasks, but they are expected to remove any barriers or resolve any conflicts halting the project and to gather feedback from the team. - Phase Four: Closing the Project
Congratulations! We made it! It’s done! In this phase, the project manager and the team discuss all of the lessons learned from the project and document them. Everyone is involved in this phase, and we ask things like, “What worked well?” and “What could work better next time?” A project manager like me who goes above and beyond may also put together a small lunch or online gathering for the team to celebrate and recognize their hard work.
